OMG! Challah

"I had three challahs on the table, one was yours, and it was DEVOURED. The other two weren't even finished." - Amy G.

OMG! Challah takes four hours to make therefore they are now made on the first Friday of every month. Other dates may be available depending on how many you order. Please give The Leading Lady plenty of advance notice.

*NEW* The Monthly Motzi Program. See details below.

Called "OMG! Challah" because that's exactly what everyone says upon their first bite. It took fourteen years to perfect this challah. A warm golden crust on the outside, and a chewy buttery bite on the inside. It makes the absolute best French Toast too. . . if it lasts that long.

Brown Butter Blondies

Finally something that gives blondes a good name. These are the best chewy chocolate chip cookies you've ever tasted, in bar form. They get their rich warm flavor from browned butter (cooking butter a little past the melting point results in toasting milk solids thus creating a wonderfully nutty aroma and caramel color.) The sprinkle of coarse salt on top brings out the Blondies' rich flavor and gives you a satisfying sweet and salty bite.

Standing Ovation Chocolate Cake

I dedicated a year to finding the perfect dark chocolate cake. I tried flourless, almost flourless, and scads of devil's food recipes. This is THE ONE. It has four ingredients: chocolate, butter, eggs, and sugar.

This 71.4% chocolate cake has a smooth fudgy quality that will make your knees buckle and proclaim, "You complete me."

* The Standing Ovation Cake is always GLUTEN FREE however, Leading Lady Delights is not a gluten-free facility.

"I can confirm that this cake will make your taste buds fall over in delight and then stand up again so they can applaud."

"This gluten free cake is truly delightful! I've tried a lot of gluten-free desserts, and this take the cake!"

"Just what you want in a flourless chocolate cake -- rich flavor, moist crumb, dense but not at all clumpy. Is there an emoticon for "getting up out of my chair to applaud"? This cake truly deserves a Standing O!"

Triple Threat Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chewy, chocolaty, mind-boggling talented. Named in honor of my triple threat friend Kristin whom I met during "Anything Goes". She can sing, act, and dance and this cookie will make you want to do all three. The thin dough is really a vehicle for the bittersweet chocolate to get to your mouth. A slight crunch, a little chew, melted chocolate, there will be swooning.

"It's Like Buttah" Sour Cream Cake

*Now in THREE flavors: espresso-sugar, cinnamon-sugar, or cocoa-sugar swirls*

"Doo-ah-ling, you HAVE to try my coo-aw-fee cake". My "muthah-in-lawr" gave me her mother's coffee cake recipe and I made it Leading Lady Delights ready with a little espresso powder. Unlike other coffee cakes that GO with coffee, this one has the coffee already in it. This cake is moist, buttery, and has a little crunch of walnuts. A sprinkle of espresso sugar on top and Boom!, you're good to go.

Terrific with any warm beverage, brunch, snack, after dinner . . . (you get the idea.) Choose from espresso-sugar, cinnamon-sugar, or cocoa-sugar swirls.

Buttermilk Biscuits

These buttermilk babies are crispy on the bottom, flaky on the top, and moist in the middle. How do you like your biscuits? Eat them warm right out of the oven. Smother them in butter and honey. Make a slider with barbequed pulled pork. Top with fresh strawberries and whipped cream! Try them all, you don't have to share.

Pumpkin Buttermilk Biscuits - Hey Pumpkin! The fluffy buttery biscuits you already love with a touch of brown sugar and pumpkin for a little sweetness and that gorgeous amber color. A perfect addition to your holiday dinner. And breakfast. And snack . . .

Rolls & Muffins

The Roll of A Lifetime

These cinnamon rolls feature a buttermilk dough which creates a crunchy buttery crust with a chewy center. Just sweet enough (we cut the sugar in the recipe by a half!), you'll have stars in your eyes from the brown sugar vanilla glaze.

"The cinnamon rolls were AMAZING! My husband and I even shared one that same night, we couldn't wait until Sunday!"

Pumpkin Oatmeal Muffins

A Svelt Starlet - on the healthier side, Leading Lady Delights' muffins feature whole wheat flour and no added fat.

Hey Muffin! I spent a year working on healthy delicious recipes, and this was one of my favorites. The Pumpkin Oatmeal Muffin is super moist, sweetened with agave syrup, and has a wonderful chew and tang from dried cranberries. Each handy-sized muffin has about 125 calories, 4 grams of protein, and 1.7 grams of fat. I've heard they freeze well, but they've never lasted long enough in my house to test it.

"Oh my goodness, it is taking every ounce of restraint to NOT take the pumpkin muffins out of the freezer that I am saving for my husband while he is out of town. Love is tested in so many ways, right?"

Brownies

Presenting the newest addition to the Leading Lady Delights cast: Burnett's Unbelievable Brownie and The Maltese Brownie.

Burnett's Unbelievable Brownie

I had to name this incredible brownie in honor of the greatest comedienne of all time. Burnett's sensational imaginative style is captured in this superb dessert. Bite into the thin flaky crust, then indulge in a chewy-gooey, eye-rolling, chocolate experience. You may even dress yourself in curtains and tug on your ear for more. No joke.

You'll whisper, "You're good. You're very good." This brownie has a crispy chewy crust, a classic moist bite, and just a hint of malt finish. Order yours with or without malted milk candies. They're "The stuff that dreams are made of."

"Gorgeous and delicious do not do this challah justice. They are "marvelous,"' as Billy Crystal would say! Lovely to look at, delectable, soft, flavorful and if I haven't mentioned, fabulous when toasted. Well, I have now. Do try Leading Lady Delights - you're in for a treat!"
